Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Chapter 648 - Harris' Father

"Nico, shut up," Aiden admonished.

Nico was annoyed. He looked at Harris and Aiden, not knowing what he had done wrong.

"Harris, forgive him. He often speaks without thinking. Don't take it personally," Tara immediately got up and apologized to Harris.

Harris was indeed extraordinary, nobody should've doubted his personality and skill. The only drawback he had was not having a father.

His life was completely opposite to Nico's.

Although he didn't have the ability to match Harris' skill, Nico was still the eldest grandson of the Atmajaya Family. He was loved by everyone around him. Bima wasn't the only one who helped him— he had two uncles ready to catch him whenever he fell. Harris, on the other hand, didn't even know who his father was.

"I'm not hurt by his words. Maybe I don't have a great family background, but I'm already grateful to have a mother like mine. I'm also lucky to meet Mr. Aiden and Mr. Bima." Then Harris also raised Nadine's hand that he was holding, "And most importantly, I can meet my true love."

Nadine joined in the laugh and said, "That's right. I also thank Mrs. Hana for bringing you to the Atmajaya Family. Grandpa often said that he felt lucky with Harris in the Atmajaya Family. We all consider your existence important in our family. Unlike my stupid and useless brother."

"I will learn a lot from Harris. Harris you will be my brother-in-law. You have to be polite to me," Nico said proudly.

"I've been very polite. I've even helped you hide that you don't often come to meetings and play outside the office hour. Besides…"

Nico immediately rushed over to Harris and closed his mouth. "It's all in the past, okay! Why are you bringing it up now?"

"I'm just reminding you of what I did for you," Harris said politely.

"Get off him!" Nadine couldn't accept it when she saw her brother bully Harris.

Harris was a very good man. Even though he was skillful in his job, he never forgot to be humble because his mother repeatedly reminded him to always be aware of his place.

Even if Nico did anything to him, Harris wouldn't fight back. He could only rely on Nadine to help him.

He did all of it out of respect for his mother.

He wanted to think of Aiden and Nico as friends, but Hana didn't allow him, for fear that Harris would forget his place.

Nico immediately let Harris go, feeling a little embarrassed that the man had exposed his laziness. He glanced at his uncle fearfully, worried that Aiden would reprimand him.

At the same time, the door to Anya's room opened. Bima entered the room accompanied by Maria who helped him.

"Father..." Anya immediately sat down when she saw her father-in-law.

"Don't move too much. Lie down and get plenty of rest." Bima waved his hand, asking Anya to lie back on her bed.

Maria immediately went to Anya and stood beside her. "Anya, I have heard the story from Aiden. Don't worry, everything will be alright. Father himself chose the best doctor for you," Maria comforted with a smile.

Anya was shocked to hear that. She did not think that Bima was the one who asked the best doctor to handle her. No wonder Aiden was so confident and completely unconcerned.

Indeed, Bima's choice of doctor would never be wrong.

"We're family. Of course I have to call the best doctor for my daughter-in-law," Harris took a chair and put it beside Anya's bed so Bima could sit down.

"Since everyone's gathered here today, father wants to tell you something." After saying that, Maria glanced at Harris.

Aiden immediately tried to stop him. "Dad, you have to tell the person concerned first..."

"The person concerned is Harris and he also has the right to know the truth. If Hana wanted to tell him, she wouldn't have kept the truth until now. Harris' father came to see me today," said Bima.

Everyone in the room was immediately shocked, especially Harris. He didn't even know about his father.

Who was his father? Why did his father come to meet Bima?

"Dad, we should talk to Mrs. Hana first. Let her decide whether she wants to tell Harris or not," said Aiden.

Bima became increasingly impatient. "Then hurry up and call Hana now. Let us hear her decision."

Aiden immediately called Hana. "Mrs. Hana, a man came to the Atmajaya family house today claiming to be Harris' father. Do you know about this?"

When she heard that Harris' father came to Bima, Hana felt a little relieved. "Sir, I was the one who told you that Harris will get married soon. As his father, at least I wanted him to come and see you. If you don't like Harris' father, at least think of the dedication that we've given to the Atmajaya Family."

"Mrs. Hana, take it easy. We just wanted to make sure it was Harris' real father. By the way, from today on, Anya will be staying at the hospital. Would you please wrap us anything we might need?" Aiden said, changing the subject.

"Yes sir. I will immediately prepare it," Hana immediately hung up and took the items needed.

After ending the call, Aiden said, "Mrs. Hana herself asked Harris' father to come to the Atmajaya family as his father. She did this because she was worried that father would arrange an arranged marriage for Nadine to another man. She did not want her son to lose the woman he loved. If it weren't for this, Mrs. Hana would never have wanted to see Salim Mawardi again."

"Salim Mawardi? The very rich jeweler?" Nico looked at Harris in disbelief. "Luckily, you are very similar to Mrs. Hana, not like the Mawardi Family. Just look at Salim's son. He is so ugly."

"Nico..." Bima said, "Watch your words."

"Salim Mawardi has a mentally challenged son named Halim. In addition, he also has an adopted daughter named Della. I heard Salim's wife forced Della to marry her son, making her run away from home!" Tara said.

Just like Nico, Tara also liked gossip so it was no wonder she could chime in with the topic very quickly.

"Where did you get the news?" Anya asked curiously.

"I heard it from my VIP client," Tara grinned broadly as she said this. It's also one of the advantages of being a dentist for rich people. She could get a lot of information from her patients. 

"They said that after Della ran away from home, she worked to support herself. The Mawardi Family allowed her to suffer, hoping that she would be in trouble and return home to marry their son," Tara continued.

"How could they do it? If I were that woman, I would never want to come back." Nadine felt that the Mawardi family was very immoral. How could they adopt a daughter only to force her to be their daughter-in-law?

Wouldn't that make them an abusive family?

Just because the girl was adopted, how could they force her to marry their son?

"Salim Mawardi can get his wealth and current position because of his wife. Even though he wanted to acknowledge Harris as his son, he would not let Harris return to the Mawardi family house. This is all my fault. I don't know about Nadine and Harris' relationship. I think Nadine is old enough to start dating. Harris, please don't take it personally. I really appreciate you and am not against your relationship with Nadine. I am very happy that you will be my grandson-in-law," said Bima.

Harris was silent from beginning to end. Nadine then looked at her fiancé worriedly. "Harris, I don't care who you are or what family you are from. Our feelings will never change."

Harris looked back at Nadine and then nodded firmly.

"Sir, please let me marry Nadine. I will treat her well, love her and take care of her for the rest of my life. Regarding the Mawardi family, I don't want to have anything to do with them," said Harris.

Anya looked at Aiden as she continuously gestured for her husband to help Harris.
